News: 3 days agoGoff completed 16 of 25 passes for 213 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while netting minus-2 yards on two rush attempts in the Lions' 33-28 win over the Saints on Sunday.

Spin: Goff had one of his quieter days in a game that had a somewhat unlikely flow to it, with Detroit seeing a big early lead evaporate and doing very little scoring after a 21-point first quarter. Goff was especially effective in that opening period, hitting Sam LaPorta and Amon-Ra St. Brown for touchdown tosses of 13 and 25 yards, respectively. Goff did extend his streak of games with two touchdowns to four, and he's gone interception-free in three contests over that span heading into a Week 14 road divisional matchup against the Bears.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Goff returns as the starter in Detroit after a strong 2022 campaign in which he finished fifth in QBR while ranking no lower than sixth among QBs in passing attempts, yards and TDs. Goff's 10th-place fantasy finish was the second-best showing of his career, but he's never finished better than 10th on a per-game basis due, in part, to minimal rushing contributions. Goff hasn't rushed for a TD since 2020 and has never cleared 108 rushing yards in a single season. He will benefit from an elite offensive line and top WR Amon-Ra St. Brown, but even if he plays well, his lack of rushing will limit him to fringe QB1 fantasy output at best.
